Hi first time here. I was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer last May. I have been told it is incurable I had a hysterectomy and a stoma fitted at Xmas and all I keep thinking is I want one last holiday to Spain with the family then I will settle for good old Scottish summer holidays lol. My sons are trying to talk me out of this saying the insurance will be far too expensive a lot more than the holiday itself. Has anyone else been to Spain with a stage 4 diagnosis and managed to get a decent deal with any insurance company? I’m desperate for one last holiday in Spain so I’m hoping I can find out some helpful information here. Thanks Teresa
Hi Teresa22
Unfortunately, it can be more difficult to find reasonably priced travel insurance when a cancer diagnosis is involved.
Have you had chance to look through the 'recommended travel insurance' thread yet, as that's where the majority of recommendations are? If not, clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there. As there are lots of recommendations, it's probably best to make a list before starting to phone around.
I hope you're able to get some reasonably priced insurance and that you have a lovely holiday.
Thank you I will have a look in the morning I appreciate your reply
